Description
The song smells of sea salt, cigarette smoke and bitter laughter after too long a silence. In it, sandcastles are built against the waves, as if fragility were also a strength. The words sound like a challenge, then like a weary confession: the world is a stage, roles are handed out for free, but everyone writes their own script, most often on scraps of torn drafts.
There is irony in this story of teenage stubbornness mixed with the wisdom of a person beaten down by life: ‘yes, everything will pass,’ ‘yes, everything will be fine,’ but while it is still here, you can drink, swear, and even believe for a second that your heart will endure. This is not about despair, but about a strange stubbornness - picking yourself up again when the wave is already at your feet.
